addiction treatment clinic or program
A clinic or program where people get help to stop using drugs or alcohol.
用法パターン：
[someone] is in rehab (for [addiction])
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes think "rehab" can be used for any hospital stay. In everyday English, "rehab" by itself usually means a special place for treating drug or alcohol addiction, not just any medical treatment in a hospital.
類義語
treatment center (More general and slightly more formal; can be for many kinds of medical or psychological problems, not only addiction.)
対義語
active addiction (Describes the opposite situation, where someone is still using drugs or alcohol rather than being in treatment.)

類義語
renovation (Very close in meaning; more common in formal and written English, while "rehab" can sound slightly more informal or real-estate focused.)
対義語

用法パターン：
